Leading
Caster Company Darcor Announces Major Appointments
Toronto,
January 30, 2002 - Darcor Ltd., North America's leader
in the design and manufacture of ergonomic, high-performance
casters and wheels, announces two important appointments
at the company's head office.
Effective
immediately, Rob E. Hilborn moves to the position
of president of the company from the position of marketing
manager. As president, he will be responsible for the
operations of the company and for establishing its direction
and strategy.
"These
are exciting times for our industry, and during the
next few years we plan to introduce several innovative
technologies to emphasize our role as the leading source
of quality casters for industrial, institutional and
office users," Hilborn says.
Darcor
has more than 70 years' experience designing, manufacturing
and selling high performance casters. During that time
it has learned that every workplace is different, calling
for innovative solutions to match each user's needs.
"Our
partnership approach to solving our customers' problems
is our core strength, and we will continue to develop
leading-edge casters and wheels for the most demanding
applications," Hilborn says.
Hilborn
says that today's primary force behind caster design
and development is the increasing concern for ergonomics
and safety. Darcor's products blend ergonomic principles
with advanced materials, resulting in the lowest possible
rolling resistance and superior design, subjected to
the most rigorous testing anywhere before product is
released.
"We
aim to deliver the best caster solution with the highest
value through flawless function, supreme durability
and expert service," Hilborn says. "Every
Darcor caster is designed for effective, safe performance
by being smooth rolling, quiet, durable and long-lasting."
Darcor,
whose ergonomic logo symbolizes work-efficient, worker-friendly
casters, addresses the subject of ergonomics in the
30-page white paper, Ergonomics of Manual Material
Handling. It can be downloaded from www.darcor.com
or obtained by phone, fax or email request.
